Corporate Social Responsibility Coordinator | Community Impact | Public Speaker | Marketing
In my Africana Studies classes the discussion would sometimes come up about the statement, “I don’t see color.” And the issue with that statement is, if you don’t see color, you don’t see me. Visibility is important, hints the quote, “You can’t be what you can’t see.”, and the saying, “Representation matters”. Both of which speak to visibility…. His response was very spot on and well put. We can’t fix issues that are not visible, and therefore are not seen. And I state both because, though some things are visible to someone, that doesn’t mean that they’re seen by everyone. #Perspective #RepresentationMatters #DEIMatters

When training new hires in records management, I always emphasize how subtlety important accurate preservation of history is. In this example, if we didn't have on record how diverse the 19th-century West was we'd only have Hollywood depictions to rely on. An unreliable narrator at best!
From Made by History: Black cowboys made up as much as a quarter of working ranch hands during late 19th century. That legacy has been obscured.

Envision your success
I've always kept a vision board listing my goals. Even as a boy in the Philadelphia projects, I was preparing to achieve my dreams. Through planning and preparation, I became the first in my family to graduate high school and college, then joined law enforcement, rising to become the Coral Springs Police Department's first black sergeant. I served in various capacities and received numerous awards. Recognizing societal needs, I briefly left police work to found a company training in active shooter and mass casualty response. When the Broward Sheriff's Office needed leadership after the Marjory Stoneman Douglas tragedy, I accepted, becoming the first black sheriff in the organization's 109-year history.
